Environment Variables
CAMLIBS

- IOLIBS
If set, defines the directory where the libgphoto2_port library looks for its I/O drivers (iolibs). You only need to set this on OS/2 systems and broken/test installations.
- LD_DEBUG
- Set this to all to receive lots of debug information regarding library loading on ld based systems.
- USB_DEBUG
- If set, defines the numeric debug level with which the libusb library will print messages. In order to get some debug output, set it to 1.
